About this design
The split monogram pairs a bold family initial with the last name threaded through it. It is the most formal of the three layouts and the one that photographs best, which is why it is the design most often chosen as a wedding gift. It works in either wood, but the deeper grain of acacia gives the initial more weight.
What people engrave
A single initial with the couple's last name is the standard choice. Add an EST year if the board is marking a wedding or an anniversary rather than a move.
